Rental Car
Family Bali Tours
We highly recommend renting a car(with driver) to go around Bali. Their public transportation is not convenient. They have Gojek and Grab for taxi and food deliveries but booking one might cost you more. We have discounted rates from Family Bali Tours for car rental and tours for our guests: 400,000 IDR for a 6-7-seater SUV (6-hr rental, driver and gas included) 550,000 IDR for a 6-7-seater SUV (10-hr rental, driver and gas included) 1,100,000 IDR for a 14-seater van (10-hr rental, driver and gas included) They provide an airport transfer as well starting from 170,000 IDR. You can reach out to Bob of Family Bali Tours via Whatsapp(+6281337122382) and mention Vinia & Greg for a discounted rate.
House Or Rental
Bali Hotels or Villa Rentals
You can book at any hotel you prefer. The wedding is in south part of Bali. If you like to be in the city proper, we recommend staying around Seminyak, Jimbaran or Kuta. If you prefer a more quite and exclusive area, Uluwatu and Nusa Dua are great locations. Ubud is highly recommended as well but a longer drive to south Bali. There are also a lot of beautiful houses and villas to rent in Bali. However, the Bali governor recently implemented a new rule that prohibits tourists for staying on unregistered villas and homestays. We do not know which are registered and not, so we highly recommend staying on hotels instead. Please let us know where you are staying when you RSVP so we can arrange your transportation on wedding day.
Hotel
The Westin Resort Nusa Dua, Bali
If you are looking for a quieter area to stay and want to avoid the traffic and tourists in Kuta, The Westin Resort in Nusa Dua is a great choice. It is a 5-star hotel located in the white sand beach of Nusa Dua. There are some restaurants and bars around the area, but not as much as in Kuta. It is less than 2 miles from Bali National Golf Club if you are interested in golfing.
Hotel
Swiss-Belhotel Tuban
We did not get a hotel block from this place but if you are looking for a cheaper place to stay, this offer from Swiss Belhotel in Tuban is perfect. They currently have an ongoing promo and you can book on their website with promo code BOOKDIRECT. It is a 4-star hotel at the center of the city.
